>Among those known to have borne the God Gems was Nanahoshi Shizuka.Though she sought only to research and return to her homeland, the mere fact of carrying such a jewel made her the object of countless desires.>To the world she became not Shizuka, but the ‘Bearer of the God Gem>How Nanahoshi came to bear the God Gem is uncertain. Some say it was granted when she was summoned into this world, others that she discovered it in her pursuit of a way home. To her, it was no prize but a chain, binding her life to divine designs.>“The so-called God Gems are not mere jewels. They are fragments tied to the very will of the gods. To hold one is to invite destiny itself to bend—sometimes in your favor, sometimes against you.”>“Because of the God Gem, she was never left in peace. Men sought her hand, kings sought her loyalty, and thieves sought her life.”>“To bear a God Gem is not fortune—it is burden. Those who see only its blessing cannot see the loneliness it brings.”I'm surprised nobody discussed anything about redundancy vol 3 here, lots of foreshadowing for the sequel. Gotta wait for the official TL it seems.
